What exactly does that mean?

the chart compared different exercise that that target the glutes in varying percentages.
sometimes we think we are doing a great exercise to improve a body part, when actually we're not.

bottom line:
best exercise for upper glutes: barbell hip thrust,
seated band abduction is also very high in activation

medium glutes:
barbell hip thrust again

lower glutes:
barbell dead lift
barbell hip thrust
body weight single leg hip thrust
in order of highest to lowest of activation
